[edit] Sources Notes

I've added a {{sources}} template to this page. Since Kottke's autobiographies tend towards the ... embellished ... it would be useful to have as many independent sources as we can find for any autobiographical details. :-) Tim Pierce 17:45, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

• I removed the {{sources]] template as I have added a bunch of sources. Agreed that things can get "embelished" for Leo... they spread all over the web, probably from Wiki mostly. There are still spots that need clean up and additional sources and could be individually tagged. Airproofing (talk) 23:18, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your work here, Air. Jgm (talk) 13:06, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Genre

I'm not sure about the "blues" designation here; I've never heard or read Kottke describe his own music that way and I can't think of a Kottke song I'd defend as "blues" or even "bluesy". Of course we are dealing with a guy who defines "unclassifiable", what do you all think? Jgm (talk) 13:12, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

• I agree. I'll be brave and remove it. Airproofing (talk) 15:49, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
